PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE IN MEDICINE
After qualifying I did my house jobs in medicine and general surgery. I then undertook
the three-year General Practice Training Scheme gaining more experience in general
medicine, obstetrics and gynaecology, casualty and orthopaedics, and psychiatry.
I then completed a further year training in psychiatry, both adult and child-psychiatry.
In 1991 I decided to enter general practice as a principal and was appointed a Medical
Officer to Newcastle University. A year after joining the University Health Service I
became the Senior Partner. When the health service became an independent practice I
was solely responsible for writing the new staff contracts, negotiating the contract
between the University and the new medical centre and establishing new links with the
Health Authority.
As a GP I provide a full range of general medical services.
Since independence in 1992 I have remained the Senior Partner of the University Medical
Centre renamed Newcastle Medical Centre in February 2007. It is a City Centre Practice
with 12000 patients and a very successful MASTA travel clinic.
